The Chicago White Sox are continuing a makeover that they hope will pay huge benefits in the 2015 season.

According to multiple reports, the White Sox have agreed to a three-year deal with outfielder Melky Cabrera as they continue to change the face of their team. MLB.com reported late Saturday that the 30-year-old Cabrera agreed to a deal worth an estimated $42 million, pending a physical.

The White Sox previously signed closer David Robertson to a four-year, $46 million deal, and made a six-player trade with the A’s that netted them right-handed starter Jeff Samardzija. They also signed first baseman Adam LaRoche to a two-year, $25 million contract and reliever Zach Duke to a three-year deal.

The switch-hitting Cabrera is a career .286 hitter. His best season was in 2012 with the Giants, when he was the All-Star game MVP and was leading the N.L. with a .346 average in mid-August. But a positive test for testosterone led to a 50-game suspension.

Jon Lester set Major League Baseball records for largest signing bonus and biggest upfront payment with his $155 million, six-year deal with the Chicago Cubs. The pitcher’s contract calls for a $30 million signing bonus, of which $15 million is due by April 1, a person familiar with the agreement told The Associated Press.

The previous high for a signing bonus had been Vernon Wells’ $25.5 million in 2008. Lester’s upfront payment tops a mark set Dec. 8 by Cuban defector Yasmany Tomas. Arizona agreed to a $14 million signing bonus for the outfielder-third baseman, all payable within 30 days of the deal’s approval by MLB.

The girlfriend of a slain Auburn player said he was arguing with a man at a party when a third man pulled a handgun and opened fire. Redshirt freshman Jakell Lenard Mitchell, 18, died after being shot in the chest early Sunday at an off-campus apartment complex. It was the same complex where two former football players and a third man were shot to death outside a 2012 pool party. Auburn police arrested a 22-year-old man on murder charges Sunday afternoon.
